tbh i dont care about the controversy. all the games ubi shits out are crap.
Time for them to go bankrupt imo. Which ubisoft game did you really enjoy fom their releases in the past years.
All assscreeds and far cries are low effort copy pastas.

You're reaching a little here.
A "decoration".. ? Nah. If you want to belittle Yasuke properly, call him a glorified squire, that'd be closer to being accurate. He's a pretty remarkable and unique character, but apparently he needs more history cred to make the cut. 
I don't recall seeing you all bitch about how far removed from reality previous titles in the series have been so far though, other than mocking the whole present timeline stuff 
I don't mind calling Ubisoft's virtue signaling out since it's fairly obvious, but that's definitely not the approach I'd have taken with it.
Virtually nobody cared if Nioh's protagonist was white, and that's just the gist of it.
I'd argue the reasons for that are 1. The devs are Japanese and get the "pass" to do whatever they want with "their" setting, 2. Nioh remains a pretty niche series compared to the giant that is AC, 3. It's Ubisoft developing it and 4. A white character for a largely Asian/Western audience will pass.
Either way, I don't think Adams wielded demon magic and the such, so his likelihood in the game is about as imaginary as this Yosuke will be.
It's like there's no middle ground between we wuz kings and "I can't stand this inclusion that's actually got some roots in history because it has to be virtue signaling".

500 games in a row with either females or black people as the protagonist and people are gonna start getting tired of it. Whatever reason you think won't mean shit as we all have our opinions on the matter. You love it but try to hide it which is fairly obvious since you keep arguing about nothing for no reason, but that's also fine.

Okay, so the point for you is rather how these characters are portrayed, not their inclusion to begin with (...).
Some of the "West" generally pushes for a fairer, more realistic representation of women, yet it's also the continent from which stems the wildest pornos, where sexual freedom is a thing, and where a lot of things are over sexualised (be it for men or women). Ideally speaking, I'd want both ideals to coexist, they're not antinomic to me.
I don't mind Stellar Blade whatsoever and I despise anyone who wants to "censor" it, but then that has to work both ways, imo. If you wish for people not to give a shit about an obviously fetishized character.. I wouldn't give one either for an obviously fanciful one.
If I were a game dev, I'd pragmatically just not use historical characters in such a setting, this shit is just wood for social media fire
I recall seeing you discuss how toxic expectations that men are burdened with are portrayed and conveyed by the media.. that goes both ways 
If you expect risky/over-the-top sexy stuff from Western devs, it won't be coming from AAA companies ("our" industry has become mainstream for a while), it'll be from indie publishers and the such for the same reason payment processors like Visa or MasterCard constantly give shit to porn companies : puritanism. However, I completely agree that this puritanism now comes from certain fringes of the "left", which I despise (imo, we all do in here).

Realistic is just what these cretins say. But what they say doesn't matter. The women they use are quite far below average.
Please stick to the topic or i'm out.

So at least not always online.. then I'll probably give it a go eventually, but for full price no way.

Think it looks ok-ish. Like... serviceable.
But we all know that in any recent Ubi game, NOT the graphics are the problem.

I wonder how bloated this one is gonna be. Valhalla was hard to get through. It felt twice as long as it should have been.

Believable and relatable...Yep, sounds like Call of Duty

too many "10/10!" AAA games looks like mobile games and at least it doesn't look like that.

Still, it's a maaaybe isodemo if it ever gets cracled in a year or two. Only suckers pay for the dozens of ultimate special legendary somewhat special a little special $80 but you're still a peasant editions

Good, now we need a screenshot of the immersion breaking current day/future/non-simulation setting that these retards keep pushing throughout the series

Most Ubisoft games look rather appealing in screenshots, then you start playing them and ..
